Everyone is a winner

Welsh construction once again celebrated the effect and influence of collaborative working, integrated teams and best practice in fine style at the eleventh CEW Awards held at the Celtic Manor and hosted by Jason Mohammad. 

Almost 600 members of the Welsh construction community applauded the 18 winners and highly commended organisations and projects across the 15 categories. Thank you to everyone that entered and a big thank you to all 600 people at the Celtic Manor as you raised over £5,000 for our chosen charity: Marie Curie. 

The CEW Awards are a barometer for the success of what you do in your organisations and what the CEW team advocates every day. What’s more we know it works. The awards prove it. Since 2006, when the first awards event took place, projects and organisations taking part have delivered community benefits ranging from support for more than 300 charities, to 1,500 school placements and coordinating around 10,000 hours of volunteering. Of all the projects delivered, around 70% of all spend has remained inside Wales and £1bn spent within 20 miles of CEW projects. We have heaps more data and all of it is tangible, measured, verified value. 

We could not do any of this work and organise such a successful event as CEW Awards without the support of our stakeholders, the outstanding quality of entries – more than ever this year – and the investment of time by our judges and sponsors. We are hugely grateful to all our sponsors, particularly the headline pairing of Costain & ABC Electrification.
